Got the motor freshened up. LQ4 with an LS6 intake, holley EFI fuel rails, AN-4 steamline fittings, F body water pump, low mount f body alternator, high mount F body power steering and dirty dingo spacers to maintain the truck crank pulley (which desperately needs to be painted or replaced). Still need to get a new set of valve covers - will likely end up with the small block script covers. Waiting on the power steering pulley and tensioner too. Nervous the orange and black will look weird with a gold firewall but we shall see. I wish I could have just kept the three piece vortec cover and avoided this whole expense but it didn't fit with the cover on. Oh well.
Before and after
